Toss up between Duke or UNC

I still like conneticut, maybe i'm just crazy but if Charlie V comes back he and the rest of the team should have alot of experience

Not without Ben Gordon and Okafor...

It's too early. It depends on who goes pro. I hate preseason #1's anyway. This is the first time I can remember the "experts" being right.

gotta go w/ duke.

 

i think connecticut will be pretty good next year cuz anderson, brown, boone, and villenueva will all be back i think. correct me if im wrong

i'll be a homer and go for illinois... we aren't losing anyone important and hopefully we can add some inside presence...

I'm goin to pick a sleeper and say Syracuse. Dunno if Warrick's goin pro or not though.

i said kansas cuz i think they also have a lot of guys back and usually the #1 pick is a curse and i hope it is cuz Illini will be awfully good

Not national champ, preseason #1. Preseason #1's are determined months before the season starts in the minds of the "experts". Syracuse has no shot.

They have to get another scorer before they are a top 10 team again. G-Mac and Warrick are both good, but they cannot get it done alone. The loss of Billy Edelin killed them. Had Edelin played the whole year, I have no doubt they could have been a Final Four team.

 

I'll take a wild guess and say that it is OK State. No reason why. Also, I predict Ga Tech is in the top 5, just due to them not losing anyone critical(that is, of course, unless they do lose someone critical...but I don't see how that will happen).

i was torn between Connecticut and UNC. UConn will return Boone, Villanueva, Anderson, Denham Brown, and Hilton Armstrong and get back Marcus Williams and Macrus White from injury. Ed Nelson (transfer from GT) will be eligible and they are getting two super freshmen, Rudy Gay and AJ Price. Also, it isnt guaranteed Gordon's going pro, although i am about 99% sure he is. But, despite that and my UConn bias, i had to go with UNC. They are returning Felton, Williams, May, McCants and getting a couple good recruits. UNC will be the team to beat

UNC and Illinois are good picks IMO. Duke could be there also. Also who is GTech returning?

I'm changin my choice to Georgia Tech. I know the Aussie center is returnin, so that's good enough for me.

We're not sure if Felton and/or May is going to return, plus I still don't think Roy Williams will ever win it all.

Andy Katz's rankings

 

He has Wiscy @#4 -- even I can't believe that, and I think they have a great team -- I don't think devin harris will be back -- I read somewhere during the season that made it seam like he would probably leave early.

Schenscher, Bynum, Jack, Muhammad, Elder, Moore

 

 

Basically, they just lose Lewis

Then Tech has got to be included. I also would say Kansas, if Simien is telling the truth about coming back for his senior year.

Moore is a senior. The talent will be there, but the depth will be the question with GT next year.
